Book cover for paperback text book?

[LouisLady]

i know theres book covers for the hard-cover text books..but is there anything I can buy or make to use as a cover for paper-covered text books?

I've seen people put tape all over it but is there anything better?

TiA! =)

You can get heavy plastic, designed-for-paperback book covers from Brodart.com, which specializes in book supplies for library use. They're only like a buck a piece. But the shipping might be more than you want to spend.

When I was in school I used to make them using paper bags from the grocery. It's really just like wrapping a present.

my students just wrap their books in newpaper, or use shopping bags (they are into abercrombie bags so the model will be on the cover), or gift wrap

when i was in school, they used to hand out book covers...and we all had to wrap them. of course i was "cool" and did it inside out so that i could decorate it and make it look all pretty
